A few days ago, i said a new build of XMLTV Viewer wouldn’t be coming for a while, but that was a build of the OLD version of XMLTV EPG Viewer. This version has been rebuilt from the ground up in a few nights, is half the size of the old version, and contains about all the same features. There are a few minor features that i decided to leave out because of their infrequent use, but all of the major features are back.
- Grid View (plus, no ugly text box underneath grid view anymore.)
- Now View (a new view which displays what tv shows are on now, or starting soon on all channels)
- Search View (so you can search for tv shows)
- and of course, our default listings view.
- Better support for EPGStream.net feeds.
- Cleaner display of data (in my opinion).
- Stores settings in an xml file, not the registry (so they are much more portable).
There is a downside with this version though. You will not be able to select a default feed from the installer. That was removed because the previous version used the deployment wizard in Visual Studio, whereas the new version uses the WiX Project from Sourceforge for the installer framework. As i said before, some features are not back in the new version (like channel logos, but they will be soon). Some of the menu option’s also haven’t been linked up to their respective sections, so if that occurs, give me a yell.
Enjoy.
You can get it at: http://brentp.net/downloads/projects/xmltv/Installer.msi
The old version will remain up at the old url until i get all of the old features into the new one (minus the text colouring features and so on).
